Hi Holtzhauer I have admired your system especially those contras! I tried the Plinius but I can’t remember the model and it was very good, though I prefer a slightly warmer sound. The Macs do everything that I want and I was previously using the 501’s but the 611’s are on a different level. They are much faster, greater depth and presence. I think going to the Analysis Plus Oval 8 was a huge improvement though. Glad your doing well and keep me informed of your choice.

Breezer: from what I understand the driver configuration is the same , but with different drivers. I have heard a 2 version and my sound very different. You would have to ask Vasken what the differences are. Mine are finished in ebony and they are pictured on pinterest.

Thanks! I have a pair of the new Shahinian Diapasions 2's coming soon. I'm looking forward to hearing them as both the Obelisk 2's and the ARC 2's sound great here.

Thanks! I love your Village Baker concept. Sorry I missed it when we were there looking at OU for my daughter

Thanks! I agree the clutter drives me nuts! We are getting ready to build another house which will be more modern and less cluttered

It is the Wassily chair by Marcel Breuer from the 1930's
